Who’s ready with a big, smiling matchbook?

The only thing good in this world is fire
Ready, steady turning love; catch it like a burning tide
Big title of our wave it ain’t new or undecided
Turn the tap and open fire; drink the well that empties you
It’s a rickety, crickety world
Take us in with open flames
Promise me you’ll never let go of that desire
Cuz the only good things in this world are on fire

Push it, and lack like this
Radical promise
Not a lackluster bliss
It’s your blockbuster wish
When your account is in the negative, son
You gotta quickdraw some
Trigger happy, finger snappy fun
Yeah, the dishes’re done man!
Cuz we’re blocking out all their in’s
And I’m so damn devout to this radical sin
Sideways fist in the vultures’ face
Warm floorboards in an empty room
But a post-it music note in the new space
I’m about to burn up some vocal chords
So forget about a payment plan
I’ll reap my own damn rewards
Cuz when the afterlife is earthly, it’s an easy lesson
Only heathens ever go to heaven

The only thing good in this world is fire
Ready, steady turning love; catch it like a burning tide
Big title of our wave it ain’t new or undecided
Turn the tap and open fire; drink the well that empties you
It’s a rickety, crickety world
Take us in with open flames
Promise me you’ll never let go of that desire
Cuz the only good things in this world are on fire

Good god helps only those who help themselves to the
First helping, last supper
Re-sold to the unwilling seller
Guess you got the better
By force
In time
You steady recline
Keep us in the attica
Feed us erratic
Stuff the ageless taxidermy
Gargoyle
Of millions of meaningless dimes
Earnt and burnt nickels
While dollar’s on the dole
An origami fold
Am I supposed to show concern
For the decline
Of the master I’m all the while inclined to burn?
I think I know, you
Grandfather tick tock
Timebomb, tip toe
Through the trick noose
Blissful shock in an empty parking lot
So goes the thought:
I will kill you all with just the one shot
It’s ever returnable, eternal murder I’ll read to you further, just renew the burner
It’s no use
You can call truce on abuse
Don’t cut off the hands they use,
Untie the noose on you,
Loosen but don’t remove
You’re right to be confused
Who knows what you could lose?

The only thing good in this world is fire
Ready, steady turning love; catch it like a burning tide
Big title of our wave it ain’t new or undecided
Turn the tap and open fire; drink the well that empties you
It’s a rickety, crickety world
Take us in with open flames
Promise me you’ll never let go of that desire
Cuz the only good things in this world are on fire

Don’t marshal your desire, put the heat up higher
Keep the ire burning steady, everybody’s always ready to burn

(The only thing good in this world is fire)
(Singe the economy, have a thrill for free
Cuz dollar bills are so offensive to me)
